The condition OF the Vienna poor at.
tending the elementary schools resulted
In appalling disclosures, Upward OF
4o0e children were suffering from the
pAngs OF hunger. some Of them being on
the verge of starvation. A long list OF
heartrenGing scenes came to light, and
no doubt Was left that not few OF the
unfortunate little ones had died of In
anition. The Intelligence, heralded
abroad through the local press, at once
became Sensational, and the starving
school children are now the idols of the
hour.
fhe children, crosse xamined By q re.
lief COMMITTEES, corroborated the evi.
denoe already taken. It transpired
that their principal food consisted Of
dry bread and occasionally little weak
soup or coffee. 1t 10 quite true that
some Of them affirmed that they were
habitually given glass Of spirits 70
stifie tho cravings OF their appetite and
70 keep oRt the cold.
One boy positively stated shat his
father was n gsod man, and that when
he could not give him anything 60 eat
no let him drink as much gin rs be
liked. ia. ja," exclaimed his school
fellows, "and that Is why yea often
come drank 10 school"
The parents OF the starving children
are for the most part day lAborers
though some undou btecly belong TO .
less respectable class. As soon rs the
work OF relieving the children was
taken In hand the subscriptions were
opened at the editorial Offices of the
metropolitan press. Seldom has an ap
peal 10 the public charity been niort
readily and more generously responded
to. The poorer classes have largely
contributed.
The popular newspapers are full o

spare much money, but who offer &c

food. Almost all these advertisements
add that application can be mace with
